@patrike any chance of a linux agent in the near future or a partnership with SMOS?
The work to make Remote Agent running on Linux has recently started, but it's not a small implementation task. Expect that it will be a number of months before the first version is ready because there are many other priorities as well. |

Well, it doesn't even HAVE an API so don't waste your time. What would be nice is if you add a feature to awesome miner, a new compatibility mode - "command line only" and just try to pass the basic connection info in that case.
I've not had a change to test it myself, but in their first forum post, in the section "Third Party integration" there is an example of an API response: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3281187.0There is a feature in Awesome Miner called Generic Miner, where you have to specify the full command line and everything yourself: http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/genericminer.aspxWith a Generic Miner you will not get any hashrate or revenue information, but at least it let's you use Awesome Miner to start and stop the mining, and if the mining process is crashing, Awesome Miner will automatically restart it. Ahh, okay cool, I didn't see that API info on their github page. My bad. I am fine entering all the connection info by hand, I'm just saying that most mining software understands -o -u -p For example, if awesome miner would simply not pass -b parameter to crypto dredge miner, it would work 100% switching pools and algos, but there's no way to achieve this. It would be perfect if we could just tell awesome miner the mapping of commands to use instead of relying on you to investigate and release a new version for each new mining program to be controlled. Just a suggestion.  I don't know what the deal is with the bitcoinz stats coming form coincalculators, but the profit estimate is very close to 0. Maybe you can fix that somehow or let them know if something is wrong on their end... I do see your point about being command line compatible. That might help in a few cases. The most time consuming with all new mining software being released is the API's, that all are different and Awesome Miner needs to adjust to that. I've been thinking of making some plugin or scripting feature available for this, so users that likes to do their own scripting can add support for all sorts of mining software API's. BitcoinZ recently forked algorithm to Zhash, and just like Equihash the profit calculations are a bit different compared to most other algorithm. This will be addressed in Awesome Miner 5.2 that is planned for tomorrow. |

@ patrikeAgain about CN, but with JCE-Miner: I'm able to run JCE as cpuminer-opt, it can auto-switch for best coin at moment. But API isn't working in Awesome. If I access the APU adress/port into web browser I see everyting okay. Can you add support for JCE-Miner API? You can see the discussion/errors ehere: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3281187.msg40417916#msg40417916JCE-Miner's dev is working in GPU support with great performance (mainly for old GPUs, but the Polaris results are good too). I think could be awesome to add it for Awesome (lol). Thanks a lot! I've received a few requests for support this one so I will take a closer look once I get a chance. Thanks for your suggestion.

I think there is an issue
Cryptonight stellite v4 is not shown in profit table, and xtl does not show up in the coin list
You need to run the latest development version of Awesome Miner for XTL to show up correctly. Please also check that this algorithm is enabled in the Options dialog, Algorithms section and that you have enabled CoinCalculators.io in the Options dialog, Statistics section. |

Thansk for the suggestions. I think that especially HSRMiner is high on the priority list, together with JCE-miner. Those two are probably the mining software next in line to be supported, as it looks like right now. The next release of Awesome Miner will also add support the new EWBF Equihash miner and also the Z-enemy miner, so the mining software support is getting better. |

Due to the excuses of the programmer that does not solve the problem that makes us lose money every day, and the smart ones who know c # but neither share nor help, I will be forced to remember this loss of money every day.
yesterday I lost ZIXX and Zcore coins, several times throughout the day. Tomorrow I will count the coins that I have lost, so that the users will realize that they also happen to him.
What is my solution to be looking all day the screen for when you see a coin, to put the rigs by hand, mining, for that I do it without AW
I have the impression that AW is focusing a lot on the big miners and ASIC and leaving aside obvious things from the GPU market.
Tomorrow I count the coins that I lose because this program does not have a simple basic function, nor a simple rule to do it, nor option, just wait for the programmer to do it, or that some smart instead of wasting time arguing, demonstrate what he knows by giving the community a c # to help us
If I lose coins I find a moral obligation to notify other users and tell them every day in this forum, the place where you have to talk about that.
Lately almost all the bus that they arrange are of older miners in ASIC
Going by your logic and attitude, good luck if you go far. Program = Useless because it doesn't have a "new" feature that you requested implemented or considered for implementation. Developer not considering your proposal given reason and workaround = Fleeing from problem, responsible for you losing "virtual" currency ** I never said I know C#, in fact, if you understand my post where I use the word "probably" means I (likely) don't know c#, maybe you should consider using less insulting words in the first place everytime you post, reports a problem, request a feature. To point you in the right direction, doing a big favour for you Generation of the Take For Granted, Everything must be handed on Silver Platter 1. - Open up microsoft Excel -> Data -> Import From Web 2. - plug in the appropriate API calls from AM (reference: http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/api.aspx) See for yourself, a whole new world! everything else, you can use Google to search how to write your own rules triggers with vba Sorry, I have not insulted, I guess it will be a failure of the translator. It is not my intention to say bad words, I can be intense, but I try to be respectful. If any sentence and concept has been mistranslated, I sincerely apologize. It also depends on the subjectivity of the one who reads. Sometimes I do not like to read some truths. And I do not pay to have to learn C #, I hope that over time my request is taken into account, and there is some form, whatever it is, a menu, a rule or something that a person who does not know how to program in c # can easily do . I reiterate my apologies, it is difficult to guess with some expressions used in other countries that can be mistranslated. Let us focus on having constructive and creative discussions about the software and feature improvements. I answered your initial feature request and pointed out a similar concept that other users have requested as well - to force the profit switcher to mine on a specific pool to focus hashrate based on your decision rather than only profit. It may not be exactly the solution you had in mind, as it's more manual, but would solve a request made by several other users. So there will be improvements made in this area, because I do understand the point you are trying to make. In addition, I've recently been improving the C# scripting feature related to profit profiles, and I have some work related to this in the pipeline. If you give me a week to finalize that, I will also see if this could be reused to also come up with a solution to your request. I don't have an exact answer to this yet. I do read all comments in the forum thread and get inspiration and take note of feature requests to make sure that I implement the feature that most users are requesting. It's in my interest to make as many users as possible happy, while still providing a software solution that is stable and understandable. I do get a quite large number of feature requests, the majority via e-mail, and it's not possible to implement all requests right away. It's always about making priorities with the the goal of making the software as good as possible and make as many users as possible happy. I really appreciate the time and effort everyone here puts in by requesting features, suggesting improvements and contributing to good discussions. This helps me to prioritize and get a better understanding of how people are using the software. It's also important that we all work together on keeping the discussions friendly. Thanks! |

you can add a custom rule that will notify you, there's a trigger for GPUs count.
Yes.. notify me if less than.. more then.. If I have 500 rigs I have to define one rule for each one because I don't have always 6gpus in a rig. For the moment, the only solution is to use the workaround suggested by moppido, where you define multiple rules. I do however see your point here that it would be even better if this rule could automatically detect a change in the number of GPU's. That could be a future improvement of this rule. |

Hello Patrike. I somehow got a virus on my main rig. I was unable to get it cleared out, (It kept respawning a day later), and I decided it would be wisest to backup my config, format the drive and reinstall Windows 10 Pro. So, after reinstalling all my drivers and getting everything set back up, I was back off mining again. So, my problem is that it will stop mining and says mining process failed. This happens only on my custom software. The first couple times it was windows defender deleting Excavator, and Claymore cryptonight cpu miner. I disabled Windows defender, and then it happened again with Excavator. I went to the Excavator folder, and the .exe was still there this time. I clicked it manually, and it opened right up. I tried again from Awesome miner, and still no dice. So, I checked the diagnostics, and it said "file not found". So, I went back into the profit profile, and pointed it to Excavator again. Now it worked again. Weird. So this repeated itself 5 or 6 times over the corse of the night with Excavator, Claymore Cryptonote CPU miner, and Nevermore miner. (The custom ones I installed myself) I woke up to the miner stopped also. In all cases repointing to the exe file fixes it. Hoping you have some advice for me, I need to keep this rig up. Thank you for all your hard work and assistance.
Update:This has been happening all day. I noticed a couple things that might help identify what's going wrong here. When I hit the button to enter the screen where you specify the path for the mining software, it appears that the correct location is selected in the box already, but when I hit the button to navigate to the software, it starts me out at the location of the last software that couldn't be found. For example, if excavator won't start and I help it find the excavator file, then an hour later it may try to switch to nevermore, and it can't find it. I go to help it out, and it shows the correct nevermore path in the box, but when I go to specify the path, it starts me in the excavator folder, I correct it, then an hour later the cpu miner (on a seperate profile btw) can't find the Cryptonote cpu miner, and I go to show it the location and it starts me out in the Nevermore folder, etc. Hopefully this helps. Thank you.
This sounds like a strange scenario. When you say you had to re-point to the exe-file, was the path at all changed in the text box? Opening the dialog and pointing to the same file again shouldn't make any change to the content of the text box? When Awesome Miner says that the file wasn't found in the Diagnostics wasn't found, it also lists the exact path and filename it tried to use. If you copy this path and run it, it should be a good indication if any part of the path or the file itself is missing. The fact that the file browsing dialog is showing another path when you browse is just a UI issue where Awesome Miner doesn't explicitly tell the Windows file dialog to automatically browse to the folder you have specified. Instead the file dialog shows the folder where you where browsing the last time. This doesn't have any impact on the actual path configuration, but I will see if I can improve this UI behavior. Ok this problem has continued, and I checked the path in the diagnostics. It appears that the problem is that on my previous Windows install, I used my email account for my user name, and when I reinstalled, for security I used an anonymous account, and Awesome miner is using the old path to the mining software, which is totally understandable, but the problem is that when I correct it the path is remembered for awhile, then after some time eventually it reverts to the old file location, where it will not find the file. Thanks for your help in getting this straightened out. Hi Patrike. Sorry to keep on about this, but it keeps happening. It keeps trying to go to the old folder address from before I reinstalled Windows, I correct it, and it works for awhile, then out of nowhere it forgets the file location again, and fails to start the mining process, hanging up. It happens with Excavator, Nevermore, Claymore cryptonight miner, and even CCminer. It's happened 4 times today, and I woke up to it not mining today, and saturday morning. Thanks for any ideas you can suggest. Is this on a remote miner? And there is only a single Awesome Miner main application that is controlling this remote miner? Can you please send me the log files for this scenario by e-mail? Please provide both the log file for Awesome Miner (toolbar: Tools-> Log File) and for Remote Agent (via the system tray icon menu). Thanks! |

2/ Difficulty : they (coincalculators) expose a very convenient 3h average difficulty. 24h average is generally too long to follow intra day big waves. Current difficulty is too short to avoid "Dirac". Can we have the option to choose this difficulty ?
3/ Caching : it may not be related but when you apply custom properties to a coin listed by cc.io, it seems like those new values are not taken into profitability calculations (miner side). Starting/Stopping miner doesn't perform a new profitability recalc, even after switching interval.
2) Awesome Miner can either pick currentDifficulty or difficulty24, depending on if you have configured the Current or 24h avg mode in the Options dialog, Statistics section. 3) Although the API let you make queries that gives other revenue calculations in the API response - these numbers are not used by Awesome Miner. Awesome Miner only uses information like difficulty, block time/reward and exchange rate in order to calculate the revenue based on the hashrate and power cost you have in Awesome Miner. 2/ Can we have the 3h intermediate choice ? (kind of feature request) 3/ I reproduced the bug every time on coins that aren't mainly listed by coincalculators (additional url) https://drive.google.com/open?id=1OeY-NHGwS9b5Dt6Jh8-Ab9BlH9bym_Pghow to reproduce : - apply custom properties on a coin - profit mine it - uncheck custom props for this coin (it's not anymore profitable from the Coins tab) => mine : this coin always lauching with old props 2) Yes, there will be some improvements to the profit switcher later on, and something similar to what you are requesting here will be part of that. Thanks for your feedback 3) I will try to reproduce this scenario. Is the final step that you simply start the miner again, and the values you see in the View Details dialog still indicates that the profit switching uses the custom properties of the coin - although it was unchecked? |

Hello Patrike, Just a quick question, right now on zergpool you can read this : Nist5, and skein algo estimates are changed to mBTC/GH/day instead of mBTC/MH/day. Update miner software accordingly or use API/status parameter to reflect on multiplier Do we have to change profit factor from 1 to 0.001 for those algorithms ? Or does awesome miner will handle those changes automatically using some API connection ? Since a few weeks ago Awesome Miner can read the unit (GH / MH / ...) directly from the statistics API's provided by zergpool and similar Yiimp based pools. They added this improvement to their API's to get us away from the previous issue that every time they changed their unit of reporting software like Awesome Miner also had to adjust to these changes. Thanks to these changes - Awesome Miner will automatically use the correct unit and profit factor even after Zergpool make these adjustments to some of their algorithms. |

Hello... Is it possible to set the difficult with a fixed value with excavator v1.4.4a in awesome miner ?
where to write it?
Is this the difficulty value you sometimes pass to a mining pool, often as part of the password field? Or is it something specific to Excavator? |
|
|

Thanks for the reply but I already have that setting. It seems to be a Windows issue, not an A.M. issue. Defender and the firewall are turned off, etc. Now the miners are not even staying running, they launch then a few seconds later exit. All the diagnostics log says is "Probably cause: incorrect configuration" but I assume that's just a generic message, the configuration is fine.
This typically indicates that the mining software close/crashed, and it's correct that the message given from Awesome Miner is quite generic here, as Awesome Miner just noticed that the mining software no longer running for a reason. Didn't the mining software output anything in the Diagnostics output - it closed/crashed right away? Have you tried to re-install the Microsoft VS C++ redistributable packages that are required by some mining software - to make sure they didn't get corrupt when you upgraded Windows? https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=48145 |

@patrike, it will be great if you can add an action that will change the worker name or override global profit switching wallet address for a profit miner. what I am trying to accomplish is changing the miner's wallet address after a given time interval. right now got it's working by changing the profit profiles for a miner, with different wallet addresses set inside them on "Override pools" tab. it works, but it is really messy.
thank you.
I have another feature in the pipeline where you will be able to use a C# script as a rule action, to set a time limited wallet/worker name on a profit profile. You will be able to run the rule on a schedule you define. |

Another way that I can think of for patrike, is to create a new type of rule, where I for each rig tells you to make the same coin as the Rig3.
That is, it can be done without changing the interface and only adding the possibility in rules
But as this is very necessary and few people realize it and lose money every day with this problem. from my point of view, it would be appropriate for it to be something more in sight.
But I am content with a new type of rule that I can say,
The rig 1, makes the currency of the rig 3
the rig 2, makes the mneda of the rig 3
The rig 4 makes the same coin from the rig 3
The rig 5 makes the same coin as the rig 3
in this way, each rig, using its own profile, will be limited to mining the same currency as the rig 3. And that same rule when activating it should deactivate the auto swtich in that rig, so that there is no interference.
I try to contribute ideas, although I believe that theirs is to implement it well in view, so that all users use it easily and stop losing coins as we do most of them.
Knowing the problem with the Exchanges, Awersome miner has to give the tools to eliminate or minimize that problem for the good of the users that we trust in the program.
I think be bottom line here is that you request a feature in the profit switcher where it in fact doesn't do profit switching for a while - instead you want it to mine on a specific pool that you point out. I don't think there needs to be a concept of "follow" another rig - you might as well just select 4 miners (or a group), then right click and say that you want to force them to a specific pools for a period of time. Then it would either automatically revert to do profit switching after a day, or until you cancel this temporary pool selection. Today these features are not part of the profit switcher today, as it only looks at the profit. If you only want to make the change for a while, an ugly workaround would be to define a very high profit factor on a pool, and the profit switcher will run in that direction. |

https://www.dropbox.com/s/xe0sw46pz8lngd6/IMG_2263.TRIM.MOV?dl=0Hello Patrike I leave you a new error, or so I think. It is using a Coincalculator coin, in the option to change the protocol. I did not have problems with C11 but now yes, I also see that it is badly defined, like Allium. 2 days ago I was mining c11 without problems, now I get an error. I have everything right, the bencmark works without problems, I have chosen the best miner, and I have also tried with others. the configuration of the pool is correct, all right, even coins of days ago that mine now give me that failure. I have left a video for you to see. In the override algorithm dialog, I do see that Awesome Miner displays the internal name of the algorithm in the user interface once you selected it (it can show up as 61 instead of Allium that is the name. This should however only be a display issue in this dialog, that I can correct by displaying the user friendly name of the algorithm instead of the internal name. To make sure I have the full picture here 1) Is the JLG coin showing up correctly as C11 in the Coins tab (you may have to click Refresh once) after you change the algorithm of it? 2) In the Properties of your pool, is the JLG coin selected? 3) Can you use the Diagnostics button to start the miner to see which parameter that Awesome Miner passes to the mining software that isn't correct? Thanks! |

When i set the full path from C:\ on each of the remote miners it gets overwritten by the latest path set. So if i set the full path on my local miner last it overwrites the previous paths set on the remote miners. Then the remote miner fails to find the file.
Then if i fix the full path again on the remote, it overwrites the path set on the local miner.
I have different C:\Users\"names"\ on the remotes so different paths on each one.
There is no concept of configuring this per miner. There is only a single textbox where you enter the path that will be used for all miners (both local and remote). When you use the Browse feature it can help you to fill in the path in this textbox, but if you specify a path for a remote miner, that one will be used for all miners. If the path is the same on all miners, except the local computer, wouldn't it be possible to move the mining software to a similar path on the local computer as well? |

Hi Patrike
Question regarding static difficulty for pools, I have around 20 odd pools that I mine on across several mining rigs, previously in order to set the static difficulty correctly I would just clone the pool and have separate ones for each rig, this resulting in a pools list that was fast approaching 100+, which is a nightmare for updating.
I have since condensed it all down to just a single pool per algo for all my rigs, but obviously static difficulty can only be set per pool which means for slower rigs it could result in a long share times and the faster ones risk being block/banned for spamming dozens of shares a second.
Is there a way to set static difficulty per algo, per rig (profit profiles maybe?)
I know that all CN V7 pools will have the same static difficulty, likewise for the LiteV7 and other algos.
Cheers
I don't think there is a good solution to this today. What I had in mind for the future was a concept where you can define your own variables on a miner, for example "Difficulty=123". From your pool properties you could then reference this from the Password field like "diff=[Difficulty]" resulting in "diff=123" for a specific miner. I hope a concept like this would resolve your scenario as well. |
